The starting salary for a new hire is based on education and experience related to the position. Cap services performs wage comparability studies on a sampling of positions every three years to ensure wage structure is appropriate for the organization. Cap services participates in selected wage studies when the information is collected for cap's geographic area, for wiscap or other wisconsin cap agencies or for selected trade groups (mra-the management association, inc., as example). The compensation for senior management, including the president & ceo, is determined in the same manner as that of all other staff. Certain positions may have performance-based incentives, as approved in advance by the board of directors. Compensation is set by individuals without a conflict of interest and all decisions are documented.”
